Just like all other kids, my students LOVE learning (when we teachers make it worthwhile)! They work everyday in collaborative groups, sharing amazing strategies and ideas that even adults can't come up with. Our school, whose mission includes bilingualism and social justice, is located in an urban neighborhood. We are a new pilot school within the school district, allowing us certain autonomies, which include curriculum. Historically, most families chose to bus their children about 1 hour outside of their community in search of better schools. However, ever since the opening of our site, we have been able to celebrate a "homecoming" of sorts, providing families with a quality school within their community.
